“The most iconic, primordial powers of the Marvel Universe have been central to my AVENGERS run. And few forces in the cosmos are more world-shaking and potentially world-destroying than the Phoenix Force,” Aaron said. “Its legacy on Earth goes back to the Stone Age, as we’ve seen, but we haven’t seen much of the firebird in the present day. That’s about to change in a very big way.”

It’s fun all around,” Garrón told SYFY Wire in a recent interview. “’Enter the Phoenix’ is a high octane, non-stop, thrilling action epic and readers are in for an extremely fun treat.”
